Back to HomeHow We Work
Our Approach to Estate Matters
Every matter we take on follows the same four principles — regardless of which service level is appropriate for the family's situation.
Understand
We learn what assets are involved, which family members have an interest, and what documents already exist before giving any advice.
Advise
We explain the process that applies — civil, faraid, or both — and what is required at each step, leaving decisions with the family.
Prepare
We draft documents, prepare applications, and correspond with courts and institutions — handling the procedural side so families do not have to.
Complete
We carry the process through to conclusion — whether that means handing over a written overview or distributing the estate in full.
Service 01
Estate & Will Consultation
A calm, confidential conversation about wills, estate distribution, and faraid where Islamic inheritance applies, helping you understand how a legacy can be arranged. We explain the documents usually needed and leave each decision with you. Suitable for those planning ahead or families considering a recent loss. Includes a written overview.
- Private, unhurried discussion at our George Town office or by arrangement
- Covers both civil wills and faraid inheritance planning
- Written summary of discussion and recommended next steps provided
- No obligation to proceed further after the consultation
Service 02
Probate & Administration Support
Careful help with grant of probate and letters of administration, including the paperwork to transfer assets to beneficiaries. We prepare the applications, deal with the relevant offices, and keep the family gently informed throughout. Designed for those wanting experienced support during administration.
- Preparation of grant of probate or letters of administration
- Correspondence with High Court and relevant registries
- Asset transfer documentation to named beneficiaries
- Regular updates at each stage without chasing
Service 03
Complete Estate Handling Package

We take on the procedural work so the family can move at its own pace, staying available at each step. Intended for those wanting one considerate team throughout.
- First meeting through to final asset distribution
- All court applications and government correspondence handled
- Beneficiary coordination and dealing

Shared Across All Services
Our Service Standards
Confidentiality
All information shared with Zaman Legal is held under professional privilege and not disclosed without your instruction.
Document Review
Every document submitted to a court or registry is reviewed by a qualified solicitor before it leaves our office.
Proactive Updates
We contact families when something significant happens in the process, rather than waiting to be asked.
Fee Clarity
Professional fees are agreed in advance. Disbursements are shown at cost, itemised, and explained before they are incurred.
Family-Centred
The people affected by an estate are at the centre of how we work — not the assets, the documents, or the procedure.
Bar Compliance
All work is carried out in accordance with the Legal Profession Act 1976 and the standards of the Malaysian Bar.
